Episode #008 - The A-Team

"In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team."

Episode #007 - Love

We tackle another Netflix original program, the Judd Apatow rom-com, Love. Find out if we loved it or not.

Episode #006 - Amazon Pilot Season

We decided to record a bonus episode this week, spotlighting not one, but THREE new pilots featured in Amazon's Pilot Season event. Viewers are encouraged to watch Jean-Claude Van Johnson, I Love Dick, and The Tick, and then complete a survey which will decide which pilot will continue as an original series.

Episode #005 - Orange is the New Black

This week's pilot is Orange is the New Black from Netflix. Think "Sex and the City" meets "Oz". Well, that's not exactly accurate, but you get the idea; women in prison. Now, go and listen, newbie!

Episode #004 - Fringe

This week we watched Fringe and it completely hooked us. Who is William Bell?!? What is "the pattern"?!? Will we see Agent Scott again?!? If you intend to watch this show, be prepared, because we SPOIL the hell out of this pilot episode!

Episode #003 - NY-LON

It's our first pilot from the 2000's, introducing the 2004 Trans-Atlantic romance/drama, NY-LON. You'll get to enjoy a pre-True Blood Stephen Moyer and a pre-Parks and Recreation Rashida Jones.

Episode #002 - Moonlighting

The year was 1985. Ronald Reagan was President of the United States of America, the Berlin Wall separated East and West Germany, and Bruce Willis still had hair...
